Description Sam Fowler 2018-06-29 03:24:55 UTC
OpenSLP through version 2.0.0 is vulnerable to a double freeing of memory that causes a crash in the slp_buffer:SLPBufferRealloc() function. A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code.
